1. Outstanding pre check in communications2. Outstanding-Property management company rep met us at the unit to do a walk through3. Negative-The access road to the site is unpaved, full of potholes, no sidewalks. For a person with a handicap, wheel chair bound would be very difficult to navigate. Really detracts from the property.4. Negative-The security station is small, if 2-3 cars are trying to access, gets difficult to move. Poor design5. Good-Parking, plenty of spaces as most people are flying into PV, we drove.6. Security-Good in pool area, didn't see any in parking lot. Typical pool-people saving chairs early with towels. No enforcement. Security is focused on entrance to beach and the moving of pool furniture.7. Good-Beach access8. Outstanding-The unit has a great view, good layout. Master bathroom lacks mirrors. Had frosted glass walls, so might be a feeling of lack of privacy, depending on your comfort level.9. Well stocked kitchen in terms of cooking10. You are renting a condo. There are no restaurants, snack bar, bar, scheduled activities that you would find in a timeshare resort. 11. Large supermarket about 10 minutes away.12. We stayed 5 days, during that time there was no cleaning service. Not sure if it was an option.13. The picture of the site needs to be updated as there is now another building on site.14. Complex is quiet.
Property was very clean, well maintained. Great location on quiet beach. 10-15 min walk from many tasty restaurants. Grocery store very close as well. Condo was also well stocked with appliances and utensils. Our only complaint was the strict rules at the pool. I wish these were communicated more in the description of the condo. No music, no regular beach towels, no pool toys for our kid. Minor in the grand scheme of things but could make a difference to others. The condo says it’s family friendly but there were barely any other children here. Mostly retired couples who like it quiet by the pool. In fact one man yelled at my kid for roaring like a dinosaur in the pool. The host company also didn’t respond to texts I had sent during our stay. But was otherwise great for the checkin process. Other than those small problems it was a beautiful place and we had an amazing vacation.
The good:
Modernized condo, great view of ocean, comfortable bed, nice layout of condo, upgraded appliances, nice to have washer and dryer.
The bad: location is decent, but walking in and out of a dusty construction road is the only way in/out.
I knew there was construction nearby, but I underestimated it’s impact. The photos or description of the room do not portray the impact of the construction on view, privacy and the pool area.
The ugly:
Whole place infested with ants. Really couldn’t use the kitchen because ants would literally overtake us.
Hot water heater was completely unreliable. We had days without hot water. Tried to get in contact with the concierge on this issue. We literally had about half of our time with no hot water. When the concierge got my messages about this, she was kind, told me she would see if there was a way to compensate for our inconvenience. A week later, no follow up on this.
Overall, I wouldn’t choose to go back to this property.
The condo itself was great. The road leading to it? Not so much. Dirt road, Very dusty, Very poor condition with large dips and 'pot holes'. Please do something about that road!
Welcomed by Murial who was always available. Responded very promptly to questions, etc. Stunning views 24/7! So grateful to be on the ocean. Very clean! Comfortable beds. Water temperature control is an issue in bathrooms. If more dishes were available, you would not need to use the dishwasher every day.Patio furniture needs an update as far as comfort is concerned.These are things that can easily be fixed. Drip from condensation in master bedroom dangerous as the floor can get slippery. Next to impossible to get a lounge chair if u r not there by 9:30. Far too many people own them for the day. I’m not sure what can be done to change this.In spite of these minor issues, loved every minute of our stay.
As my title states, we were very happy with the condo and the amenities, pools, beach. However there’s a huge condo going up adjacent to the property which creates a lot of noise, sun up to sun down, as well as dust and dirt. The area surrounding the property is like a war zone, dust, dirt, no good place to walk, chickens, wild dogs, garbage, etc. it’s not close to many restaurants or shops. Even so, I love Mexico and will go back. However, I need to be in a better location. Just being honest.

Water Heater
Beautiful condo in an excellent location. Everything as advertised. However, at the very start of our 12 day stay we reported a leaking water heater to the property manager. We spent the next 10 days moping the floor, emptying water buckets and switching on and off the water heater and sending multiple messages to the property manager. The communication was good at the start. The water heater was replaced 10 days later. Unfortunately we had problems getting consistent hot water and had cold showers.
The complex is beautiful and very well kept with wonderful security. The unit is beautiful as well. It's such a pity that this issue took so long to rectify, other wise it would have been 5 stars.
